Windows 10 Mobile 'production' advances to 14393.448...

Following Windows 10 Mobile build 14393.321, the last 'patch Tuesday' production update a month ago, we now have a similar round-up release, updating production status (plus RP and slow ring) devices to 14393.448. See the official changelog below. Notably, 'slow' ring Insider devices also see this update, so we still haven't got to the point where Redstone 2 is is considered stable enough even for them. However, I am expecting the 'slow' Insiders ring to jump to the Redstone 2 branch within the next few weeks, as per my analysis the other day, so this may be the last non-Redstone 2 'slow' release.

From the Microsoft changelog page (focussing on PC, but some components are relevant to Mobile):

So several major mobile-related fixes then and well worth having for all general users on non-Insider devices. Watch this space for more news of the various Insiders rings over the next few weeks.

Anyone with a smartphone running 'production' Windows 10 Mobile 'Anniversary Update' will get this update over-the-air. Your phone will tell you within a few hours, or you can check manually in Settings/Updates & Security/Phone update.
